bench is a command-line utility that helps you to install apps, manage multiple sites and update Frappe / ERPNext apps on */nix (macOS, Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS, etc) for development and production.
> **Note**: If you are looking for easier ways to get started and evaluate ERPNext, [download the Virtual Machine](https://erpnext.com/download) or take [a free trial on erpnext.com](https://erpnext.com/pricing).

# bench CLI
Bench is a command line tool that helps you install, setup, manage multiple sites and apps based on Frappe Framework.
---
## Usage
* Create a new bench
bench init [bench-name]
* Add a site under current bench
bench new-site [site-name]
* Add apps to bench
bench get-app [app-name] [app-link]
* Install apps on a particular site
bench new-site site1.local
**Optional**: If the database for the site does not reside on localhost or listens on a custom port, you can use the flags `--db-host` to set a custom host and/or `--db-port` to set a custom port.
bench new-site site1.local --db-host 192.168.1.1 --db-port 3307
* Start bench (only for development)
bench start
* Show bench help
bench --help
_Note:_ Apart from `bench init`, all other bench commands have to be run having the respective bench directory as the working directory. _(`bench update` may also be run, but it's behaviour is covered in depth in the docs)_
For more in depth information on commands and usage follow [here](https://github.com/frappe/bench/blob/master/docs/commands_and_usage.md).

## Installation
To do this install, you must have basic information on how Linux works and should be able to use the command-line. bench will also create nginx and supervisor config files, setup backups and much more. If you are using on a VPS make sure it has >= 1Gb of RAM or has swap setup properly.
git clone https://github.com/frappe/bench ~/.bench
pip3 install --user -e ~/.bench
As bench is a python application, its installation really depends on `python` + `pip` + `git`. The Frappe Framework, however has various other system dependencies like `nodejs`, `yarn`, `redis` and a database system like `mariadb` or `postgres`. Go through the [installation requirements](https://github.com/frappe/bench/blob/master/docs/installation.md) for an updated list.
If you have questions, please ask them on the [forum](https://discuss.erpnext.com/c/bench) under the "Install / Update" category.

# Easy Install Script
- This is an opinionated setup so it is best to setup on a blank server.
- Works on Ubuntu 16.04+, CentOS 7+, Debian 8+
- You may have to install Python 3 and other essentials by running `apt-get install python3-minimal build-essential python3-setuptools`
- This script will install the pre-requisites, install bench and setup an ERPNext site `(site1.local under frappe-bench)`
- Passwords for Frappe Administrator and MariaDB (root) will be asked and saved under `~/passwoords.txt`
- MariaDB (root) password may be `password` on a fresh server
- You can then login as **Administrator** with the Administrator password
- The log file is saved under `/tmp/logs/install_bench.log` in case you run into any issues during the install.
- If you find any problems, post them on the forum: [https://discuss.erpnext.com](https://discuss.erpnext.com/c/bench) with the `installation_problem` under "Install / Update" category.
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/frappe/bench/master/playbooks/install.py
python3 install.py --production

# Bench Manager (GUI for Bench)
[Bench Manager](https://github.com/frappe/bench_manager) is a graphical user interface to emulate the functionalities of Frappe Bench. Like the command line utility it helps you install apps, manage multiple sites, update apps and much more. Install just by executing the following command in the respective bench directory.
bench setup manager

# Docker Install
1. For developer setup, you can also use the official [Frappe Docker](https://github.com/frappe/frappe_docker/).
2. The app, mariadb and redis run on individual containers.
3. This setup supports multi-tenancy and exposes the frappe-bench volume as a external storage.
4. For more details, [ead the instructions on the [Frappe Docker README](https://github.com/frappe/frappe_docker/)
